Arvind Kejriwal, the Chief Minister of Delhi and the face of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), has found himself embroiled in a high-profile controversy. His recent arrest in connection with an alleged liquor policy scam has sent shockwaves across the political landscape, marking the first instance of a sitting Chief Minister being apprehended.
